How the fuck do you work that one out?Totally agree with reimbursing Chelsea fans.
It's OK moaning about Sky not caring about fans who actually go to games, but this has been poorly handled and its clear the issue is at our end.
United are compensating Chelsea fans now FFS.
This is all on Amazon for putting the Liverpool game on the Thursday. But yeah, let the skintest club in the League compensate the richest, because the league decided to allow the game to go ahead at lunchtime on the same day as the Sheffield Marathon.

What bollocks is this why should SUFC pay Chelsea or their fans a penny. We didn't choose to move the game to a Sunday which clashed with a Sheffield half marathon and I doubt very much that we had any choice of the kick off time being put back to later the same day. More than likely SY Police and SAG had a hand in that not SUFC. Let Sky/ SYP/ SAG reimburse them for the train tickets. Knowing the trains they will be on strike anyway FFSUnited are compensating Chelsea fans now FFS.

Well hopefully this opens the floodgates for sky to reimburse fans who have forked out for non-refundable train tickets and hotels when they rearrange several games a week.
It was United's request to push it back due to the MarathonWe didn't choose to move the game to a Sunday which clashed with a Sheffield half marathon and I doubt very much that we had any choice of the kick off time being put back to later the same day.
I think there is a train strike that weekend !!!!What bollocks is this why should SUFC pay Chelsea or their fans a penny.

Might be overthinking this but I'm very much supporting of generating preferential treatment from cash-rich clubs with a strong academy.United are compensating Chelsea fans now FFS.

Apologies. I thought the 5-8 April would include the Sunday.Not on the Sunday there isn't, although the numbers that actually work that day at the best of times is clearly limited
Was that request due to any pressure from SAG or SYP?It was United's request to push it back due to the Marathon
That's just a rip off.I live in London with a Season Ticket on John Street… had my train booked and it’s cost me £20 in admin fees to change it…
So i do sympathise with the Chelsea fans on this one.
I wish the Premier League would just fuck off.United are compensating Chelsea fans now FFS.

Similar principle though mate.If you're doing that before kickoff times are finalised by TV (saying Sky is lazy), that's on you, nobody else. The difference here is the date was moved, then the kickoff time was moved again after Chelsea fans would reasonably expect it to have been finalised, which happens very rarely. Who the onus to compensate them should fall on is very much up for debate
Yeah we might get another duffer like Ethan AmpaduMight be overthinking this but I'm very much supporting of generating preferential treatment from cash-rich clubs with a strong academy.
"Todd my lad, remember that time we paid for your fans, send us some of your young worldies and we will call it even"
Similar principle though mate.
Fan buys ticket, game is moved, fan is out of pocket
Because the club failed to say no originally to the 1.30pm kick off allowing fans to arrange travel.How the fuck do you work that one out?
Yes it was it was taken in consultation with themWas that request due to any pressure from SAG or SYP?
Guess who’d pay for that?Sheffield Council should reimburse the chelsea fans.
Yes slightly different but similar principle. Fan being out of pocket fo reasons beyond their control.OK, so I've just got a call from the ticket office saying I've been successful in the Brentford ballot. I can reasonably expect the game to kick off at 3pm as all the TV fixtures have been decided, and bought my train tickets down after that point. If Brentford decide this afternoon "oh wait we've noticed a bunch of roadworks on the A4 on that day can we move the game to Sunday", do you not see how that would be an ever so slightly different situation than if I booked a train ticket for Everton away today, and then in three weeks time Sky decide they want to show it and move it to Monday night?
